Juan Diaz last night looked absolutley brilliant in beating jose cotto. the pace both set was amazing but diaz looked to be one of the fittest and best comination punchers out there. Most would probs disagree but i think he is better than corrales and castillo and as soon as these guys move up after there grudge match he can be the man in this division. I would give diaz a great shout against any of the big names at lightweight and lightwelterweight.

Good post. Had heard about the kid - might have seen him, too - but last night was the first proper look. If he increases his conditioning and develops some man strength, his pristine punching technique and steady resolve will get him all the way to the top.
